Pandora

It was December 2024, when Kareema found three little kittens dumped next to ‘the haven’. She quickly took the three little ones inside and they ended up in the safety of ‘the haven’. The kittens were named Spider, Paisly and Pandora.

Pandora gets along well with the other cats and the cat-friendly dogs in ‘the haven’. Pandora is very friendly towards people.

Pandora is estimated to be around 8 months old, her estimated date of birth is around July 2024.

Pandora is a healthy boy. Despite his white color, he is not deaf as white cats often are.

Like all SHE cats, Pandora has had his vaccinations. This against common cat diseases and rabies. He is also chipped and has had a deworming and anti-flea treatment. Pandora is neutered and also litter-box trained.

Pandora is ready to pack his bags and move.

We attach great importance to the safety of our SHE cats. A SHE adoption cat must be an indoor cat. Because Pandora is used to the safe environment of ‘the haven’ from kittenhood, this is extra important for him. A very well-sealed outdoor space or cat run is of course also good.

Pandora is the only one of the 3 kittens that has not yet been adopted.

Who will fall for this handsome young gentleman with his beautiful blue eyes and offer him a loving and safe home?

Is that you? – Then take a look our adoption procedure. And don’t hesitate to contact us for questions.

Does a cat not fit into your life right now? Maybe you know someone else who is looking for a cat? – Sharing is caring!

Cory

Cory is one of the many blind kittens that Kareema has rescued from the busy streets of Cairo, which is a good thing, since blind kittens don’t stand a chance of surviving on the streets.

He is estimated to be around 5 years old. So he was probably born in 2020.

Cory is a calm cat, friendly to all other cats and cat-friendly dogs. He is shy towards people and does not let himself be petted. He is a non-touch cat.

That can certainly change. The chance is even considerable. In Haven, the cats cannot get the personal attention that an adopter can give. And the hustle and bustle with the many other cats is not ideal to gain trust.

With love and a patient attitude, much is possible. But ultimately there is no guarantee. Whoever takes Corry into their home can hope that he will become a lap cat. But must be able to accept that this may not happen.

Cory is completely blind and has a crooked position of his head, which he holds slightly to the right. He experiences no discomfort from this, he manages fine in ‘the haven’. Cory has no other known health problems.

He has received his basic vaccination against common cat diseases and rabies. And an anti-flea treatment and anti-worm treatment. Cory is litter box trained and neutered.

We attach great importance to a safe home environment for our cats, therefore Cory must be an indoor cat.

Check it out our adoption procedure and don’t hesitate to contact us for questions.

Sir Vanderbilt

It was December 2024 when Kareema saw a post about a nearly blind young cat on the busy streets of Cairo.

As so often, se brought him to safety as soon as possible. As we all know, blind cats don’t stand a chance when they are alone on the streets.

The cat was taken to ‘the haven’ and was named Sir Vanderbilt. It is estimated that Sir Vanderbilt is about 1 year old, his date of birth is around January 2024.

Sir Vanderbilt is missing his right eye, according to the vet he can still see shadows with his left eye. Fortunately this does not bother him at all.

Sir Vanderbilt is a very gentle and friendly cat to all cats and the cat friendly dog in ‘the haven’.

Sir Vanderbilt is also a real cuddler towards people, he loves to be petted.

Like all SHE cats, he has received his vaccinations. These are against common cat diseases and rabies.

He is also microchipped and spayed. Has received his deworming and flea treatment. Sir Vanderbilt is also litter box trained.

We attach great importance to the safety of our SHE cats. A SHE adoption cat must be an indoor cat.

With Sir Vanderbilt this is extra important because he is almost blind and cannot see any dangers on the street. A very well enclosed outdoor area or cat run is of course also good.

Piper as a kitten

It was September 2021 when Kareema’s husband came home with a little kitten. He found this kitten in an extremely crowded place full of people and cars and he simply couldn’t leave her there because she wouldn’t survive much longer.

According to bystanders, she had been crying out loudly for about three days. Kareema took the little kitten to the safety of ‘the haven’ where she was named Piper.

Piper is estimated to be approximately 3.5 years old and has been in ‘the haven’ for over 3 years. So she must been born about August 2021.

Piper is a quiet cat that is friendly to other cats and a cat-friendly dog in ‘the haven’. Piper is still shy towards people and does not let herself be touched. She will run away if you come too close.

Like all SHE cats, Piper has received her vaccinations. These are for common cat diseases and rabies. She is also micro-chipped and has received her de-worming and anti-flea treatment. Piper is sterilized and is also litter-box trained.

We attach great importance to the safety of our SHE cats. A SHE adoption cat must be an indoor cat. A very well-sealed outdoor space or cat run is of course also good.

Who can offer this quiet, yet shy lady a loving home? – Where she will hopefully learn to trust ‘her people’.

She deserves it after more than three years in ‘the haven’.

Are you that unique person who wants to give Piper a chance?

Then take a look at our adoption procedure. And don’t hesitate to contact us if you have any questions.

Sangria

It was July 2024 when Kareema found a cat dumped next to ‘the haven’.

The cat was named Sangria.

Sangria is estimated to be around 2 to 3 years old. The estimated date of birth is somewhere around August 2022. Sangria gets along well with the other cats and the cat-friendly dog in ‘the haven’.

Pluto

short after arriving in Haven

It was October 2022 when Kareema Ibraheem received a message about a tiny kitten wandering alone on the busy streets of Cairo. As always, Kareema made sure that the kitten was taken off the dangerous busy street as soon as possible.

So this little guy came into ‘the haven’ and was given the name Pluto.

Pluto had a very big belly full of stool, on the street he probably wouldn’t have lasted much longer. With the right treatment and a lot of TLC, Pluto has grown into a healthy young boy. Pluto is estimated to be around 2.5 years old. His date of birth will be sometime in August 2022.

He is a very gentle and friendly cat to all cats and the cat friendly dog in ‘the haven’.

Also is Pluto a real cuddler towards people. He loves to be petted and will occasionally crawl on your lap for some attention.

Like all SHE cats, Pluto has received his vaccinations. This against common cat diseases and rabies. He is also chipped and neutered. Has received his deworming and anti-flea treatment. Pluto is also litter-box trained.

Pluto was tested for FIV/FeLV in February 2026 and his test came back negative.

We attach great importance to the safety of our SHE cats. A SHE adoption cat must be an indoor cat. With Pluto this is extra important because he has grown up in the safety of the shelter from an early age. A very well-enclosed outdoor space or cat run is of course also good.

Who can offer this young cuddly guy a safe home?
